Question: The element mass matrix in the global coordinate system, ([bar{m}]), can be expressed in terms of the element mass matrix in local coordinate system ([mathrm{m}])
The element mass matrix in the global coordinate system, \([\bar{m}]\), can be expressed in terms of the element mass matrix in local coordinate system \([\mathrm{m}]\) and the coordinate transformation matrix \([\lambda]\) as
a. \([\bar{m}]=[\lambda]^{T}[m]\)
b. \([\bar{m}]=[m][\lambda]\)
c. \([\bar{m}]=[\lambda]^{T}[m][\lambda]\)
